Gorgeous

Fantastic getaway into the Catskills with incredible views. The property is very well stocked and was immaculate upon arrival. We also thoroughly enjoyed using the outdoor fire pit every evening for s’mores. Close proximity to nearby towns for shopping or restaurants. Nothing negative to say, we had a great time!

About the host

Hosted by Fausto Gambone

A small business owner of a custom home design and development company, I built this home to enjoy with family and friends. Originally from Italy, my wife and I now live on Long Island and have raised 2 children there. We enjoy priceless memories in this vacation home in the Catskills and hope you will as well.

Why they chose this property

After years of searching for the perfect piece of land we came across this amazing 5 acre vacant parcel with magical views so sweet we nicknamed it "Sugar Mountain". Within minutes of walking this property we knew exactly what we wanted to build and how to place it on the property to capture the amazing water view of the Pepacton reservoir.
We love this location because we wanted a place to get away from it all and have the feeling of being in the middle of nowhere without being too far from the conveniences needed. Sugar Mountain is only 5 minutes to the lovely town of Margaretville, 15 minutes to Belleayre ski mountain and just two hours and 15 minutes from New York city. Staring at the view never gets old!

What makes this property unique

This brand new immaculate home was designed with an open floor plan that captures the breathtaking views from almost every room including the lower level. The kitchen will satisfy any chef and is open to the Great room with soaring cathedral ceilings and detailed custom woodwork. This design allows everyone to be part of the conversation. The home is tastefully decorated with new furniture and very comfortable beds. The lower level provides a spacious and separate area making this home perfect for a multi family rental or a family with kids of all ages to have their own private area. The lower level includes a bunk room that sleeps 4 to 6 and is favorite for kids and adults. The Great room fireplace is mesmerizing on those cool nights and the heated radiant floors throughout the entire home make this an extremely comfortable winter rental. In the summer the central air conditioning will keep you cool and comfortable. The large 28 foot by 14 foot deck with barbeque and comfortable seating places you on top of the world with magical views that are constantly evolving from sunsets to fog over the reservoir which we call "Smoke on the water". The backyard has a wonderful fire pit surrounded by chairs. If you're looking for a hike this 5 acre property has some beautiful rock outcroppings on the lower section.
